Run Focalboard in Even

Even Stacks launches Focalboard as a managed container on your own machine. No compose files, no manual setup.

  1. Open the Even Stacks panel in Even. The container engine starts on demand.
  2. Find Focalboard in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 8815, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://focalboard.localhost.

Drive Focalboard with your AI agents

Even ships an MCP, so any agent you run inside Even (Claude Code, Codex, and more) can operate Focalboard directly, at both the UI level and the container level.

Through the Even MCP an agent can run commands inside it, drive its UI in the browser pane, and read its logs. It runs commands inside the container, reads its logs, and for web apps opens and clicks through the interface in Even's own browser pane. Ask once, for example "set up Focalboard and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: Open http://localhost:8815 and create an account on first visit, then build boards and cards via the GUI. The REST API is at /api/v1 using bearer token auth (token from user profile). Data is in /data/focalboard.db (SQLite).
